Basemaps - Imagery

NickDeMerchant — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 15:18:04 GMT

Hi there, I am currently using version 10.1.1 mobile and am taking advantage of using the Streetmap basemap. This works great as you are not required to be using this in a connected session as it's local on the device. I am wondering if there is anyway to get at imagery that would be used the same way. It's a bit unclear in the help as to the use of ArcGIS online as basemaps.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nick

Most of the imagery available requires an internet (or 3g/4g) connection to access. You could use SID files but they are huge.

Have you had problems Robert hooking into the ArcGIS online basemaps with mobile ?

Thanks

I would also like to add imagery to my mobile map when a network connection is available. Has anyone been able to do this? I am NOT using the out-of-the-box application from ESRI. This is a custom application. I have implemented the following code but all I get in the MapControl is a big red X.

                TileServiceMapLayer tsml = new TileServiceMapLayer(@"http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Imagery/MapServer", @"C:\TileCache");
                tsml.Open();
                map1.MapLayers.Add(tsml);
